A talented multi-sport athlete is staying in his hometown.
The UNBC Timberwolves Men’s Soccer team committed Connor Lewis to its roster.
“I am really excited about the opportunity to play at UNBC. It’s my hometown team and I grew up watching them, so it’s really an honor and a great opportunity. It was a couple of years ago when my brother graduated and signed with UNBC that I started asking myself whether or not playing university soccer was something I wanted to pursue. I quickly realized that it was.”
He is the younger brother of current TWolf Graeme Lewis and son of UNBC assistant coach Rob Lewis.
Lewis and his Prince George Impact U18 team earned a bronze medal at the BC Provincial Championships in 2019.
He was teammates with current T-Wolves Demian Dron and Julian Daduica.
The Duchess Park graduate also emerged on the basketball court this season.
He was part of the DPSS team that advanced to the BC final and was named a Provincial AAA All-Star at the conclusion of the season.
Lewis intends to eventually pursue a career as a clinical psychologist or in law.
